Hi All,

Recently ordered a Single Cask 8 year Glentauchers from Whiskybroker;

I just wanted to see what your opinion is on the murkyness of the bottle. I get it unchillfiltered and its perfectly natural to have
Sediment and build-up of some sorts, but I have never seen anything quite like this…..

[Bookie]

These bottles are non chill filtered but are lightly filtered to remove larger particles and sediment, it certainly looks like this was passed through a very coarse filter.

[jcarrick]

It does look like it is more than the natural fatty acids, esters and proteins causing cloudiness due to cold temperature. It was bottle at 50% and I assume you have it in a room with normal room temperature and not a cold room. so that amount of cloudiness appearing in your bottle could be caused by char from the cask it matured in, as Bookie says it would have been lightly filtered but probably could have done with a finer filter.

You could perhaps filter a single dram through a coffee filter than compare it to a non filtered dram, if it makes no difference then you are not removing any of the flavour, it is probably just char which Whisky Broker hasn't used a fine enough filter to remove. Some of these Whisky Broker bottlings are like this.
